by Hollee Wood

Which beauty box subscription was the best in January 2018? Ipsy, Birchbox or Boxycharm? See for yourself...

So, a new thing I want to do each month is to review my three beauty box subscriptions: Ipsy, Birchbox, and Boxycharm.

The business office originally consisted of just a P.O. Box and a message recording. They sold only the most basic products: shampoo one, shampoo two and the conditioner.
